Below decribes an actual episode in the sixties or so, that is called The Stone Flower and Shippous first Love. Sorry this one is so short.

Chapter twelve

the final chapter

"B-but how are you here?" Sango asked suddenly, fear in her eyes. "Inuyasha? Is it a Demon? Like with Shippou and the little girl with the Stone Flower?" This was referring to a little girl that Shippou had liked that lost her brother in battle.

In desperate hope, the little girl clung to the stone flower(a shikon shard look a like). She wished so hard on it that her brother would return. But he never did.

Knowing this, a demon impersonated her brother, thinking to use the little girl to steal the Shikon Shards. But Shippou saw the Demon in its reflection in a bucket of water, and, with the Inuyasha, Kagome, Miroku, Sango, and Kilalas help, destroyed the demon. But the stone flower was destroyed. Shippou and the others got her a new one, and all was well.

"Yeah, thats him.", replied Inuyasha with bored contempt.

"What? You prefer me dead?" Miroku asked sharply. Kagome was startled. Saying anything sharply was unlike him. Commanding, maybe. Angrily, Maybe. But never like that. Obviously Miroku was upset about something. She could almost smell his nervousness. Which, she realized, was probably why Inuyasha was so... contemptuous. Inuyasha probably could smell it.

"So." Kagome said after taking a sip of tea at Kaedes home.

"What?" Sango replied.

"What now? I mean we defeated Naraku. We avenged Kikyo. We completed the jewl. Miroku?" She answered.

Miroku coughed into his tea. "What? The jewl? I- um...." Inuyasha stood and struck the poor Monk hard on the head. "owww..."

"What did you do with the jewl, Monk?" Inuyasha spat furiously. The door slid back. Inuyashas hand went to Tetsaiga, Kagomes Hand went to her bow, Mirokus hand went to Sangos backside, and Sangos hand went violently to Mirokus face.

"Father!" Shippou cried. Following the fox, a small boy, that everyone recognized, walked in. "kohaku!" Sango cried, elated. She cried, as she embraced her brother. Shippou introduced his Father to everyone. After Inuyasha hit Miroku on the head again, and Miroku explained that he had wished on the Jewl that all five of them would get what they would have wished for, shippou asked the obvious question.

" Inuyasha, Kagome? What did you guys want?" asked Shippou curiously.

"Kikyo to be able to forget Inuyasha and Vice Verse." Kagome said quietly. Inuyasha went cherry red in the face

"To be Human, Demon, or Hanyou at will." He muttered. Everyone was shocked. Slowly a grin crept onto his face. "Demon was the original plan, but I got sidetracked."

So in the end, Miroku and Sango went together and started her village all over again, Inuyasha and Kagome lived together, in her time during school days, in his during break. Myouga- jiji popped in once in a while. Shippou lived once again with his father. All was well again with the small, strange group. Untill next time something came up, that is....
